    Totally newbie here,, from what i can tell my processor has been great to my system. I pair it with a 5070 OC from Gigabyte. One might be over kill for the other (im not too too sure), regardless i think it’s great!

Great experience from start to finish.

    Have had this only for about couple months and I've come to a conclusionbrhat this is this best cpu ived ever had. It's superb for what I do on a daily basis. Base clocks are stable and even overclocked it. I have had 0 problems with anything I've thrown at it.

    I bought this once my 14th gen i9 started to fail. So far it has been amazing for gaming, getting more fps than my i9 did. I mostly game so losing the core count hasnt bothered me at all for all my other applications and much lower power consumption 100w vs 270w, both running at 100% utilization.

    No Longer Bottlenecked!

    I upgraded to this CPU, and the difference is night and day! My old processor i7 10700k was bottlenecking my GPU harshly, but now I’m finally capping out my 3080ti, actually utilizing the gpus full power. Getting higher FPS across all games. I gained frames just by swapping to this CPU—no extra tweaking needed, no undervolting, overclocking. Game at 4k 144hz, and this CPU will definitely let you utilize the GPU you paid for without restriction.

    I switched to a 9800x3D from a 13700K with microcode failure...and WOW. Game to game, the difference is negligible...but connected to a 280 AIO, the Intel chip would hit 85-88 degrees under load. The 9800x3D rarely goes above 75. I have it paired with a RTX 4800 Super and I couldn't be happier.
